I had to share this… A couple of weeks ago my husband asked me if I could have some cards ready for our family to make to send to our extended family and he wanted us to make them last night for our Family Night. I was surprised that he had asked but I pulled something together yesterday. Well, we had some 20-yr old missionaries over for dinner and my husband invited them to stay if they wanted to and told them that they could make a valentine card for their mothers. They took him up on the offer, I think mostly out of curiosity! Good thing I cut enough to make 9 cards! It was pretty funny actually…and kind of WEIRD to be making cards with my husband and two 20-yr old men (along with my 11-yr old son and 16-yr old daughter). That’s just not the normal clientele in my stamp classes!
Here’s what we made. They all did a great job and I think they enjoyed it although I’m not sure they’d admit it.
Stamps: I {heart} Hearts, All Year Cheer (retired)
Paper: Regal Rose, Whisper White, Close to Cocoa, Loves Me DSP (retired)
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Regal Rose
Accessories: 1/4″ White grosgrain ribbon or 1″ White organdy ribbon, Corner rounder punch, Eyelet Border or Scallop Edge punch, 1-3/4″ circle punch, Heart to Heart punch, Dimensionals, Nesties,

That is awesome – what a great idea – I will have to keep that in mind next time I have the missionaries over.

That sounds like fun Wendy! I wish I could get my hubby and sons to stamp with me sometime…my youngest did when he was younger, and I think he actually liked it (but wouldn’t admit it either!) Super cute cards you made!
